    Service was amazing at the back bar and when I answered as well! However, the shepherds pie had no flavor and was too hot to even try to eat

    We had a great brunch experience here for my husband’s birthday! Amazing service, friendly and knowledgeable staff, great setting, and most importantly, delicious food! You must try the scotch egg and Baileys chocolate pudding. They were also very attentive to allergies here-we don’t have any, but I was impressed that they were asking everyone to help accommodate those who do. We will definitely be back next time we’re in town!

    Incredible crab cakes for more than 20 years. Don't hesitate to book a reservation here and enjoy all of the incredible menu items, but don't skip on the crab cake. It's the best crab cake you'll ever have.
